Multilingualism enhances our empathy, opens up better job prospects, and allows us to make more precise decisions. These advantages, among others, are closely linked to how the acquisition of two or more languages influences the structure of our brain. What sets the brains of bilingual and multilingual individuals apart from those of monolinguals?
Although the benefits of learning languages have always been undeniable, this is particularly clear in these times of unprecedented global interaction. These days, multilingualism not only brings people closer to better educational, occupational and professional opportunities, but it also makes them more empathetic, helps them make better decisions and gives them confidence.
